This phrase hasn't been said in a while, but I guess it's time for it to make a comeback.

Except everything above came directly from news articles and are indisputable. Looking at all that, I can see how Auburn is innocent though. I mean.. they're just misunderstood, right? Couldn't be a lick of honesty to the folks that have accused Auburn of anything, because.. well.. as you can see, there's nothing shady going on there at all.

It was really great winning the National Championship in the 09-10 season and not having to deal with all this kind of crap.

I'm not good at interwebz investigating, but I'm pretty sure McGlover told HBO that he wouldn't comment unless they helped him out with his charity organization

Here is a better list of events and how it pegged the bammer hate meter (1-10).

Auburn signs a Top 5 Class in February of 2010- 8
Auburn defeats Clemson in overtime- 8

Alabama loses to SC and drops from #1 position- 9
Sports Illustrated writes piece on Cam and Cecil-9

Cam leads AU past Ark and LSU- 9
Stories on Cam’s recruitment and FL period-9

Auburn’s refusal to bench Cam against GA-10

Auburn’s come from behind victory against GA- 9
Auburn’s come from behind victory against Bama- 12
Auburn’s ruling Cam Ineligible on Tue and the NCAA
ruling him eligible on Wednesday- 11
Auburn defeats SC in SECCG- 10

Cam wins the Heisman-10

Auburn wins BCSCG-11

The bammers could not stand Auburns success this year and the hate keeps on building. It is time to recalibrate the meter.

Bama's lost before. Auburn's won before. Both will happen again.

Doesn't change anything that's transpired off the field in the last 5 months for yall though.

What has transpired on the field has contributed to the hate and its effect off the field. Alabama could have accepted Auburn winning the SEC or Cam winning the Heisman or winning a BCS Bowl game. They can not accept all the above and a BCSNC. The trees did not have a chance.
